Eleven Dubai-based companies pledged to integrate agentic artificial intelligence into their operations. WAM reported on 12 October that the pledge was announced with support from Dubai Chambers. The companies named were Emirates, DP World, AW Rostamani Group, Al Ansari Exchange, Dubai Islamic Bank, Kitopi, Dutco Group, Aster DM Healthcare, Innovo, Independent Food Company and HSA Group.

The pledge sits within Dubai Chambers’ private-sector Agentic AI transformation programme. WAM said the companies are to consider applications in service development, internal processes and decision-making; it did not publish company-level implementation plans, investment amounts, timetables or measured productivity results. Signing the pledge therefore does not establish that deployments have been completed.

The wider programme also includes training, specialised incubators, talent development, access to finance and knowledge-sharing initiatives. Training is intended for more than 14,000 companies represented in Dubai Chamber of Commerce business groups and councils. That is a reach target for the wider programme, separate from the 11 signatories, and is not a count of people trained or firms already using AI.
